Concert Review: Daisy The Great Is Greater Live
When I watch Broad City, I feel seen for how I wish I see myself like, a badass b using her nature’s pocket wisely and riding subways with her bestie who shares a mutual obsession with Oprah and the hot guy at her gym. Yes, that is highly specific, but one of the best comedy shows ever happened by fate and rejection, when two young women were thought of as okay comediennes by a group of “no one knows them yet” actors. Daisy The Great share a similar origin story: good, studious actresses with an epiphany that music might be a more welcoming space.
If there is one thing actors are always doing it is trying and waiting, otherwise known as auditioning, and, in some ways, that is Daisy The Great’s music is all about. Helmed by ,they hit Webster Hall like they had gotten the role of two people trying to get a role. That dichotomy is pretty much the newfound core of music. Nearly every rising artists ism writing about feeling stuck, but, make no mistake, these ladies are funny, smart, and understand feeling the same does not always mean you feel like nothing.
Sometimes, I wake up and feel like my life is on a loop that I either appreciate or swear it turns me into a hamster. The way the ladies bounced off each other in harmonies, heart, and humor emulated that feeling and how its normal. In essence, if being weirdly the same is what leads you best friends, music partners, or the beginning of a Broad City Creative Union, then being the same or stuck might be the best step to a genius journey.
